CHAPTER 3 Configuring Camera Features This chapter describes the settings u sed to control the camera features. It describes how to change the white balance settings, IR mode , wide dynamic range settings, automatic gain control , and open shutter settings to improve camera perform ance. In This Chapter • Overview of Camera Settings .............[...]

Adjusting White Balance Settings White balance is normally compensated for by the automa tic white balance gain control. In som e lighting conditions, you may need to manually adjust the red and blue settings for optimal viewing. When Automatic White Balance is enabled, the red and blue setting values are based on feedback from the camera. When Aut[...]

Changing Automatic White Balance Settings 1. Select Camera Functions from the Dome Configuration Menu . The highlight appears on the Auto White Bal setting. 2. Change the setting. • Select Off to manually adjust the red or blue settings. Continue with step 3. • Select On for automatic white balance. Continue with step 7. The default setting is [...]

Select Camera Functions from the Dome Configuration Menu . 2. Move the highlight to the IR Mode field. Change the setting. • Select OFF to disable the IR mode. The camera will operate[...]

Understanding Wide Dynamic Range Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) is a feature that allows clear viewing of both bright and low light areas in a scene. Use this feature if you need to view both indoor and outdoor lighting conditions simultaneously. For example, a dome is installed in the loading doc k area of a building. When the door to the loading dock a[...]

Figure 3–3: Example scene with loading do ck door open and iris open adjustment. With WDR enabled, you can see the scenes both inside and outside the loading dock area. In Figure 3–4, you can see the boxes stacked inside the load ing dock area and the car approaching the door. Figure 3–4: Example scene with loadi ng dock door open and WDR ena[...]

Working with AGC and Open Shutter Settings The SpeedDome Ultra VII Day/Night dome provid es settings for compensating for low-light scenes in color: Automatic Gain Control and Open Shutter . Automatic Gain Control (AGC) am plifies the video signal in scenes with minimal light. Many low-light scenes result in picture noise. As gain is increased, the[...]

In this example, the dome receives inform ation about the color of the traffic light. While the light is red, the image is relatively static. With the s hutter limit set to 1/4 second (250 milliseconds), updated red light information is transmitted at 1/4-second inte rvals. When the light changes from red to green, updated light color information b[...]

Configuring AGC and Open Shutter Settings Tip : The current IR mode setting affects whic h AGC Gain and Open Shutter settings are available. The Relationship between IR Mode and AGC and Open Shutter Settings chart on page 3–8 describes which settings are available. 1. Select Camera Functions from the Dome Configuration Menu . 2.

Configuring Alarm Actions IMPORTANT When operating on Manchester networks , the dome can be programm ed to respond to any of the four available alarm inputs. However, the dome cannot transmit alarm input states to the host controller. If transmitting the alarm state to the host controller is required, the alarm device must be wired directly to the [...]

Setting Alarm Actions IMPORTANT Some controllers allow the alarm actions for dom es to be specified at the controller. See the appendixes for information about which controllers support this function. Do not use both the dome configuration utility and the controller to assign the alarm actions for the same input. Use only the dome configuration uti[...]

Configuring Normal Input States for Alarms IMPORTANT Some controllers allow the normal input states for dom es to be specified at the controller. These controllers include VM96, AD matrices with AD2083-02A code units or AD168 matrix with the AD168CCM or AD2083-02A code unit. Do not use both the dome configuration utility and the controller to assig[...]

Select a setting. • Select Preset to use a preset as the hom e position. Continue with step 4. • Select Pattern to use a pattern as the home position. Contin[...]

Setting the North Position Direction Indicators permit you to understand the approximate pointing position of the dom e to an established reference point. This reference point is called “North” and may correspond to magnetic north (if it is known) or some other landmark or fixt ure. When the dome is initially installed, “North” defaults to [...]

Programming Area Boundaries If the dome is installed in a location where you can see numerous departments or other identifiable objects, you might want to consider programming area boundaries. Areas are programmed start- and end-points of a camera's field of view. Each area is a part of a circular viewing area that extends around the dome. For[...]

Note: When areas are programmed, each area is assigned a default nam e. Instructions for assigning new names appear in Chapter 5 . To program areas, select Area Boundaries from the Alarm s/Areas/Home/Presets/PZ screen. The following screen appears: AREA BO UND ARIES PAN to sta rt of BOUN D 1-1 6 PA N RIGHT ON LY ZO OM to ma rk BO UN DAR Y FO CUS s [...]

Note: You will receive an error message under the following conditions: • If y ou attempt to program an area boundary that passes the starting point of the first area • If y ou move the cam era left after establishing the first boundary Return to step 2 and start again. 7. When the last area boundary is set, save the ch anges. A message appears[...]

From this screen, you can program up to eight Privacy Zones, delete all or specific Privacy Zones, or temporarily hide all Privacy Zones. For more information see: Topic Page Number How Privacy Zones are Programmed 4–12 Programming Privacy Zones 4–13 Removing or Hiding Privacy Zones 4–14 Deleting Specific Privacy Zones 4–15 Deleting All Pri[...]

The circled arrows represent the target area on th e screen for creating the Privacy Zone. Normally, this target area remains in the center of the screen. Using the Pan/Tilt control moves the target area by panning or tilting the dome. If the dome reaches its maxim um tilt position, the Privacy Zone may still be established in the upper part of the[...]

Removing or Hiding Privacy Zones If you make an error during programmi ng or no longer require Privacy Zones, individual zones or all Privacy Zones may be deleted. To temporarily remove the Privacy Zones, you may disable their appearance by changing the Hide All Zones setting to Yes . To delete individual Privacy Zones, you must adju st the positio[...]

Deleting Specific Privacy Zones To delete individual Privacy Zones, use the following procedure. To delete al l Privacy Zones, see Deleting All Privacy Zones on page 4–15. 1. Select Alarms/Areas/Home/Presets/PZ from the Dome Configuration Menu . 2. Select Privacy Zones . The Program Privacy Zones screen displays. 3. Select Delete Specific Zones .[...]

Programming Presets If you need to view specific places routinely, y ou should program presets. A preset is a programmed video scene with automatic pan, tilt, zoom, focus and iris settings. Once programmed, entering the number and pressing a button on your controller automa tically calls up the preset. In addition, presets may be assigned to alarm [...]
